8 Refreshing Ways to Reignite Sexual Desire After 60
Feeling down in the dumps after 60? Here’s how to add some spice back into your life.
1. Try New Sensations
Try out new toys or sensations to shake things up in bed. Soft, silky sheets or a feather tickler can bring a fresh twist.
2. Pamper Your Partner
Give each other massages before bed for some cozy time together. A nice back rub might just do the trick.
3. Change Up Your Routine
Change your usual routine with a romantic trip or even an at-home date night. Novelty helps to get those sparks flying again.
4. Talk About Your Desires
Talk openly about what gets you going. Communication is key to keeping things spicy.
5. Focus on Foreplay
Lengthen your foreplay with intimate touches and kisses all over the body. This builds anticipation and heightens arousal.
6. Keep It Spontaneous
Plan surprise dates or quickies around town. Surprise and spontaneity keep it fun.
7. Try New Positions
Mix up your moves by trying new positions or revisiting old favorites. Variety keeps things exciting.
8. Stay Fit Together
Regular exercise can boost libido and improve overall health. Work out together to feel great and strengthen your bond.
